Last Days of Pekin

Last Days of Pekin, written by Pierre Loti in 1900, is a firsthand account of the author's experiences as a French naval officer during the Boxer Rebellion in China. The book offers vivid descriptions of the war's horrors and provides an insightful look into the complexities of Chinese civilization from a Western perspective. While it reflects a degree of colonial chauvinism, it is notable for its sympathetic portrayal of the culture and people affected by the conflict.
